@Pitchblue I can understand that, yes. But I was thinking of cruel sarcasm in the case where it is an insult.

@Messi Sacasm is based in truth. If a person takes a joke to seriously whatever. If I could see someone was really hurt I wouldn't go out of my way to insult them again but that seems to be what social sites are based on these days.

I would say its only cruel if you know your audience truly doesnt have the literacy skills to understand the sarcasm.

@Firegod74 maybe they have these skills and that's how they know they are cruel

@Messi oh good. I just like playing into conspiracy theories, your posts create the perfect environment.
